Your Realistic Portavision VHF/UHF Television AM/FM Stereo Radio and
Cassette Recorder is an example of superior design and craftsmanship.  The
suggestions below will help you enjoy your TV/radio/recorder for many
years.

    Keep the TV/radio/recorder dry.  If it does get wet, wipe it dry
    immediately.  Liquids can contain minerals that can corrode electronic
    circuits.

    Use and store your TV/radio/recorder only in normal temperature
    environments.  Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic
    devices, damage batteries, and distort or melt certain plastic parts.

    Handle the TV/radio/recorder gently and carefully.  Dropping it can
    damage circuit boards and cases and can cause the TV/radio/recorder to
    work improperly.

    Keep the TV/radio/recorder away from dust and dirt, which can cause
    premature wear of parts.

    Wipe the TV/radio/recorder with a dampened cloth occasionally to keep
    it looking new.  Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or
    strong detergents to clean your TV/radio/recorder.

    Use only fresh batteries of the recommended size and type.  Always
    remove old or weak batteries.  They can leak chemicals that can
    destroy electronic circuits.

Modifying or tampering with the TV/radio/recorder's internal components
can cause a malfunction and might invalidate the warranty.  If your
TV/radio/recorder is not performing as it should, take it to your local
Radio Shack store for assistance.
